There is nothing I want to be. There is nothing I want to do.
I don't even have an image of what I want to be. I have nothing. All that exists is zero.

Nah. Time was everyone ran a shader, emblem and class item for a 15% boost. Now its just cosmetic.

Wait, there's no more boost for shaders and emblems? when the gently caress did this happen?

Beginning of year 3 if my memory serves correctly.. or like November at the latest. I'm pretty sure it's just a flat bonus now regardless of shaders/etc. and it also doesn't go up over the course of the week anymore.

Also sweet Jesus it's literally like a different game when I party up with you folks. I'm normally on after the US goon group gets on but before the AUSgoons.

Sometimes, in a city this dirty, you need a real hero.
When does this Iron Banner even finish?

I'm at rank 4 with the faction and theres an entry in the book for hitting 5 and i'm just wondering if there's much point in spending the rest of this afternoon farming rep for it instead of just cracking on with the story missions/strikes. I've only got about 2100 rep to go, but that's at least 9 wins if i'm doing my maths right.

edit: gently caress it, after 5 games of this shite matchmaking putting me in teams that are clearly disadvantaged, i'm giving up on this. I dont consider myself good, but i'm usually in the top 3 of my team in these matches whilst the opposing team wins by like 2000 points.

Totally hosed.

Also, what's that special handcannon one shot kill weapon that a lot of people seem to like to use?

Iron Banner always lasts a week, so it'll end on the Tuesday reset. Also, I would just tough it out and get to rank 5 - your IB rank won't carry over when it shows up again in a months time and you should be getting enough drops at the end of matches to make the curb-stomping worth it.

Yeah, i think you're right. I've only got 1k rep left to get so even if i get 5 more losses, those combined with just one win will take me up to rank 5.

...yes...
There is absolutely no reason to get to rank 5 in iron banner. Just do the bounties and get drops.

Just curious since I noticed you're using voidfang - do you notice a big difference not having quickdraw with ophidian aspect? I think it's pretty nice for snipers.

I main Glass Prom with Inj. Mold so I still have a heap of handling but the biggest reason is that I'm a pretty reserved player. My 1v1 game is pretty average. I get more utility by graping someone to get them to move and VFangs does that nicely for me.

It's a good roll. Keep it. I've got one with Injection Mold, ER, and Zen Moment. Very stable, IM fixes the slow handling, ER is the poo poo. Love it.
